Yes. It's an anti-piracy measure.
The consequences of Piracy include: hefty fines, prison time, fear, guilt, and my personal favourite: tons of malware.
There are free, open source versions of most popular commercial software, so "Piracy" just doesn't make any sense to me. Examples include Windows vs Kubuntu, M$-Office vs Open Office, PhotoShop vs GimpShop, WinZIP vs IZArc, Norton vs AVG Free, etc., all free. See more examples below:
Feel free to post here and ask for the free equivalent of ANY "insert name here" commercial application.
